How long do you think it takes to run a trial? Like, gather evidence, interrogate witnesses, investigate, etc. In fact, what do you think happens to bring about a trial?
Okay, so which question does that answer? Unfortunately, Trump lives in the US where the President somehow has complete immunity to everything, which seems more like an indictment on the Supreme Court than on Biden or other Democrats. It might even be an indictment of the voters, for electing Trump and giving him immunity to his crimes.
@webadict You didnt ask questions you implied that they couldnt Persecute Trump “Because there wasnt enough time”. Biden could have jailed him due to the same immunity from the Supreme court.
Also you know blaming the voters for not persecuting Trump is a new low.
Additionally I almost forgot about Yoon Suk Yeol who got arrested for a similar coup attempt:
A new low? Okay, pal. I’m not entirely sure where you think my old low was, but sure? I asked some pretty basic questions because I legitimately don’t think you know how the US legal system works. And it’s fair not to. Pointing to other countries on how corruption is dealt with, insofar as what could’ve or should’ve been done, doesn’t override the way that the US system works. Why don’t you point to other corruption cases for lower offices in the US? Those also take years to investigate and prosecute. Some of the lower office corruption cases can be wrapped up in a little as a few months, but then tend not to.
@webadict So you ignored the comment i made about Garland?
‘Fatal Mistake’: Democrats Blame DOJ As Trump Escapes Accountability For Jan. 6
“Merrick Garland wasted a year,” Rep. Jerrold Nadler said ahead of the fourth anniversary of the 2021 Capitol riot.
Also i am not your “pal”. Its simply ultra low when liberals keep blaming DNC failures on the electorate. No wonder Democrats approval rating is sub 30% with their own base.
Again, little buddy, I must ask if you think the DNC controls the DoJ? Blaming Merrick Garland is certainly a fair point, and it’s one you can bring against Biden himself since he nominated him! That is fair. But, you still haven’t used US corruption cases to support your words on how long the average corruption case takes to investigate and prosecute.
Like, I get you want to blame Democrats for everything because you have some sort of agenda or personal grievance or whatever the fuck. I don’t really give a shit why. They are surely to blame for many things, and the DNC is also to blame for many things. But, I really don’t think the Democrats are to blame for Trump not being held accountable. Especially since Trump has been held accountable on several smaller scales by mostly Democrats.
But, anyway, feel free to call all your perceived enemies liberals or whatever, my dude. You’re doing great! :)
You ignored everything I said because you don’t really think about your positions. You’re just a little guy who links news articles. You don’t know anything, buddy. I’m sorry that you don’t think I’m a leftist because I vote for harm reduction. I want my trans friends to live, and that will keep them alive longer.
Mueller (that’s his name, btws, he’s not German) is probably a bad person to use, mostly because he was a Republican, but also because I’m not sure which silence you mean: The Clinton emails or like, the rampant corruption from Trump? Because those are both unrelated to charges being brought forth, since the email thing was still being investigated for more than a year afterward, and the Mueller Report took a couple years? Garland (who was also a Republican) also took years. These are all multi-year long investigations, you need to bring up something faster, buddy.
And you didn’t use a continuum. You used two examples. Where are the other examples in America that show this? Can we look at how long Watergate took? That seems a pretty resounding example because it took years for that one too.
This is why the United States public sits by with handwringing and zero action. Every admin since Nixon has been to the right of Nixon. Socially left and economically right is just right with a few concessions. They fragment, lie, white/pink/green/rainbow/sanewash our history, our education, our politics, our economy, our personalities, our health, our lives so that people think they are very clever and pay attention to garbage they shouldn’t, and view things to which we should give heavy attention via a fragmentary lens. And this is why fascism will win, here
Hm, that is a pretty self-defeating attitude, and it kinda infers that instead of debating online that you should be out there fighting the system. I kinda agree with you, so I think your efforts are better off elsewhere.
If you want, I agree that it shouldn’t be like that. So, I will just concede the argument, because I would rather we do better together than have you think that I like it that way or something. Is that fair?
It’s self defeating on you, not me. Yeah as soon as I recover from a serious injury for which I am somewhere in between paperwork and approval, I’ll be back out there.

And why would the DNC be involved with that?
Also, was Biden President in 2019?
@webadict And here is it how it actually done when the “Opposition” isn’t on your team:

RICHTIG GUT.😍😍😍
@IngridAusOL @webadict Schön wenn Demokratie funktioniert wie sie sollte, oder?
Wünschte wir würden das selbe bei uns mit dem AFD Verbotsverfahren anstoßen.
@Benaresh @webadict
Das wünsche ich uns auch 💪✊💪
@Benaresh @webadict Javier Milei next? And then there’s the current US administration…!
@tompearce49 @webadict One can only hope. I for my part couldn’t wipe the grin off my face for a week at least.

weird that other countries seem to be able to punish coup attempts. Almost as long there is political will…

Does that help point out the issue?

If you don’t like to debate leftists then don’t come into our places and start shit as soon as you loose.

I’m sorry that you don’t think I’m a leftist because I vote for harm reduction. I want my trans friends to live, and that will keep them alive longer.
How long did it take Müller to break silence, Garland to charge?
Mueller (that’s his name, btws, he’s not German) is probably a bad person to use, mostly because he was a Republican, but also because I’m not sure which silence you mean: The Clinton emails or like, the rampant corruption from Trump? Because those are both unrelated to charges being brought forth, since the email thing was still being investigated for more than a year afterward, and the Mueller Report took a couple years? Garland (who was also a Republican) also took years. These are all multi-year long investigations, you need to bring up something faster, buddy.
As I said elsewhere, it’s extremely relevant as policy needs to be viewed as a continuum.
And you didn’t use a continuum. You used two examples. Where are the other examples in America that show this? Can we look at how long Watergate took? That seems a pretty resounding example because it took years for that one too.

Eta: the continuum is all over Lemmy, if you cba

I mean, I did just concede the argument, so I guess that’s true. Regardless, I’ll still be out there with you.
